Got mine today too! Looks great, thanks!

 

I also got mine today wohoo!! It's beautiful but I have a concern, it looks like the return line fitting is a press fit? Is it tight enough to not leak when heat expansion and oil pressure gets to it? Have you tested them?

Its actually threaded and lock tited, and yes they have been tested. I have been running it for approx 5 months and no leaks or problems.

 

I put mine on today, it's pretty damn snazzy. It was a PITA but I got it on. I took some pics of it I'll post in a little while.

 

Here's the pictures of it installed. Now if I only had those gauges to actually use this thing...

Damn I guess I failed to mention that it was a PITA to install, sorry about that. I highly suggest if you have the engine out of the car to install it then, I made the mistake and forgot to install it and it took me a good 30mins to do it with the block in the car....... rather than a measly one minute if it were out.

 

The bell housing is what was pissing me off. I had two different wrenches out and I still couldn't find a good way to get that back bolt loose. I thought I was going to have to cut one of my wrenches in half so I'd have room to move it around back there. I'll be picking up a set of stubby's next time I'm at sear's...



Of course it didn't help when my wife got home and said, "I thought you were done with the car and were't going to be buying anything else for a while." I was already pouring sweat like crazy and fighting that bolt with oily hands... all while thinking why the **** am I putting this thing on anyway, I don't even have a use for it. Bottom line, it was worth it just for the extra lip so the oil filter will not puke oil all down the side of the engine when removed. I don't care if I ever use this thing for anything else, it was worth it just for that!

 

well looks like mine is the first to be screwed up, why wouldn't it be? I guess the greddy temp sensor does not work with this pedistal, I tightened it and I guess once it hit the center thing the center thing shifted and is now lose. Any ideas?

 

Well isn't that spectacular....now the center thing fell off after messing with it a little more. Not to scare anyone, but if you have a greddy temp sensor put a few washers over the threads and an o-ring on the end before trying to install it.



Looks like that used to screw into place, but theres no way that loc tight is gonna let me get the remaining threaded piece out.

 

any pics?
